Inserting or removing a coffee filter into the filter basket is easy as well, since it is also removable. Furthermore, this also makes it easier to clean.

Furthermore, the Michael Graves Coffee Maker has another innovative feature. It features the FlavorPlus cycle. This feature allows the user to adjust the strength of the coffee according to their preference.

In other words, if one would prefer to drink stronger tasting coffee, they can do so by just adjusting the setting using the unit’s intuitive controls.
